Jail time for pastors

As ordained Foursquare pastors, they have performed more than 34,000 weddings since 1989.

But because the city passed a non-discrimination ordinance, the government has tried forcing the couple to perform same-sex weddings.

Penalty for refusing? 180 days in jail and a $1,000/day fine until they agree to violate their conscious and conduct a same sex wedding.

Believing in God’s word, they reject the idea of a “third way” compromising their biblical worldview and violating their conscience. America, from the times of Jamestown through this century, people have fled here to worship according to their deeply held Christian convictions.

Who elected these city officials?

Lots of Christians who voted against their 1st amendment rights and religious liberty.

Lots of Christians who didn’t vote.

The pastors, church leaders and churches who were silent during the voting and for the passing of the law.
